Tim Duncan collected eight points and six rebounds in the first eight minutes in the game. The Kings picked up five fouls trying to stop him — sending starting center Brad Miller and backup Brad Ostertag to the bench with fouls troubles by the four minute mark. Duncan made 6 of 6 free throws during that stretch. Duncan, however, found himself on both ends of the officials’ attention. He picked up his first foul early and the same referees Duncan expressed his love for after the Olympics heard the displeasure of the fans. Duncan picked up his second foul later in the period. The Spurs finished the first quarter wiht a 25-23 lead.
